PanAm/Para PanAm Games 2015 – Toronto!

July and August have been exciting for Toronto because of the Olympic PanAm and ParaPanam Games. The city is buzzing with excitement from local citizens, to tourists coming to explore our city. Not to mention the amazing display at the famous St. Nathan Phillips Square, the PanAm Games park with entertainment for all ages and live performances from musicians. You can say that Toronto has been partying hard for the past two months and the energy in the city has been dynamic. I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to attend the rhythmic gymnastics game. It was incredible to be at the venue and watch Olympic athletes compete right in front of my eyes. It is an event in my life that I will never forget! I took some photographs of the excitement and I want to share them with you all.

The moment Brazil found out they won the group competition! It was a touching moment, their happiness radiated in the room.

It has been an incredible experience to attend of Olympic event, if you were to tell me years ago that this would happen, I wouldn’t have believed it. I feel very lucky to call Toronto my second home and have the opportunity to attend such exciting events.

If you’ve been to a PanAm game, please share with me your experience and which game you attended!
